andrewkerr Member 30 Member For: 13y 9m 9d Posted 13/11/13 11:22 AM Posted 13/11/13 11:22 AM I have just had my car tuned by joe at cms it is a ba series 1 it ended up making 340kw atw and 1165nm torque and now my transmission has decided it didnt like the dyno or the extra power it is making what are the options I have when it comes to my gearboxwho would you recommend in sydney to rebuild box or other options. I have heard its a massive job to change to 6speed auto and not worth the cost to do conversion who has modified there 4 speed auto and where and what did it cost and how do they handle the power after they are modded I am a little disapointed that my car is making good power and I can not get to use it as box slips on boost and now have no 4th gearany help would be appreciated thank you Andrew
